Caring for Our Community. Close to Home.
Your health matters. Whether you're looking for a family doctor, or accessing lab or urgent care services, Sooke offers several community care options.
The District of Sooke is working with the Province of British Columbia and Island Health to improve access to primary care. In 2023, the Province announced a new Community Health Centre for Sooke, to be located on Wadams Way. This future facility will expand primary care access, right here in Sooke. More information is expected in 2025.
With this work underway, along with business development to attract medical service providers, services in Sooke continue to grow - bringing more care options closer to home.
Please note that the nearest hospital is Victoria General Hospital. Below are some of the health services currently available in our community:
